Eric Baldwin

GUITAR | BANJO

Jazz guitarist and banjo player Eric Baldwin studied at the New England Conservatory and has been performing and teaching in the Greater Boston area for the past twenty five years. From a very young age, he developed an affinity for songs from the 20s, 30s, and 40s and has since spent years building a repertoire of hundreds of songs by artists from these decades, such as Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Irving Berlin, George Gershwin, and many others. In addition to performing as one of the area’s best solo jazz guitarists, Eric is also at ease putting together different types of duos and trios for just about any occasion. 

Over the past eighteen years, Eric has become a well-known wedding musician, performing at countless ceremonies and cocktail hours alike. Though his true love is jazz music, he is certainly no stranger to performing other genres, such as classical, swing, dixieland, Brazilian, and even rock. He is simply a well-versed and multi-talented musician.

SAXOPHONE

Joe Sparkes has been surrounded by music since he was a small child. In school, he played piano and oboe and enjoyed playing classical music in bands and orchestras, as well as competing at the state level. During the twelfth grade, he picked up the saxophone, started playing in a jazz band, and fell in love with the freedom of improvisation. He continued playing in bands throughout college, which helped him further develop as an instrumentalist and a musician. It didn’t take long before people took notice and began hiring him to play different types of gigs at restaurants, private events, sporting events and more.

Joe plays his saxophone over backing tracks of popular songs that everyone knows and loves. He considers himself a “vocal-style instrumentalist” because he generally plays the melody of each song, which is what would otherwise be sung. In addition to vocal melodies, Joe also provides melodic improvisation, which brings a lot of texture and emotion to his music. He is available for studio sessions, weddings, clubs, bars, restaurants, private parties and more.
